Risk to injury
What could happen

Tools left unattended with the air hose attached, can be
activated by unauthorized persons leading to their injury
or injury to others.
•
Remove air hose when tool is not in use and store tool
in secure location away from reach of children and or
untrained users.
•
Air tools can propel fasteners or other materials
throughout the work area.
•
Always keep hands and body away from the fastener
discharge area when air supply is connected to air nailer.

Use only parts, fasteners, and accessories
recommended by the manufacturer.

Always assume the finish nailer contains nails. Never
use the nailer as a toy.

Keep children and others away from work area during
operation of the tool.

the tool increases the risk of personal injury.
